Let's play word association

What do you think when you read this?

The Bush administration will delay major assaults on rebel-held cities in Iraq until after U.S. elections in November, say administration officials, mindful that large-scale military offensives could affect the U.S. presidential race.

The first word I think of is "murder."

The second is "despicable."

The third is "disgusting."

What other proof does one need to be convinced that Bush doesn't give a damn about the lives of our soldiers fighting in Iraq? Senior administration officialls essentially just came out and said, "We know Iraq is fucked, but we're not going to do anything about it before the election because it could cost Bush votes." How can anybody support a man who would rather see people die then lose votes? How can anyone say this man has morals or even credibility?

This is truly sick. The only thing Bush should be voted into is a straight jacket and a date with the International War Crimes Tribunal.
